The Republic (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789361449628)

One of the most influential works of Western philosophy, The Republic is a dialogue in which Plato explores justice, the ideal state, and the nature of individuals and societies. Through the voice of Socrates, Plato introduces the concept of the philosopher-king and argues for a society governed by wisdom and reason rather than power or wealth. The famous allegory of the cave, which explores the nature of enlightenment and ignorance, is also a key feature of this text.
